Game & Ed Sheeran Announce Joint Album

    Game and Ed Sheeran have announced a collaborative album.

    “I’m working on a joint album with Ed Sheeran that we trying to drop probably end of the year, beginning of 2015,” Game says in an interview with MTV. “That is gonna be crazy.”

    Game says it was Sheeran’s idea.

    “Ed came up with the idea to start working on a joint album, and we started doing it,” Game says. “That was like in five hours. We was just going. He was on that guitar. Acoustically, he’s a genius, man, so when he does that, what comes out of me is songs like ‘Dreams’ and ‘Hate It or Love It’ and ‘My Life.’ The songs that we got, they’re real songs. And I can’t wait for people to hear ‘em.”

    Their collaboration came thanks to a post on Twitter, Game says.

    “He tweeted something about Jesus Piece, I responded, we exchanged numbers on the DM, and then we got in the studio. We were just planning to record one song; we ended up doing like seven.” 

    Sheeran is gearing up to release X, the artist’s second studio album. Game is prepping the release of Blood Moon, a compilation for his imprint, Blood Money Entertainment. Blood Moon is expected to drop within months with a DJ Mustard-produced single expected in May. He is prepping his next solo project as well, which could be his last on Interscope. 

    “I’m still negotiating my contract with Birdman,” Game says. “Lawyers [are] talking. We’ll try to have that figured out soon. That’s for my sixth album, which is untitled.”

    Sheeran has collaborated with rappers, including Yelawolf and Lupe Fiasco

      1. Yet he’s still on Interscope with a guaranted release date while 50 releases garbage tracks on Itunes.

    1. he trying to get that white euro money cause his major label hip-hop career in the USA is basically finished.

    2. Ed Sheeran and Yelawolfs “Slumdon Bridge” is a very slept on EP.
      I recommend anyone pick it up, some very unique and enjoyable rap acoustic hybrid music on there. Killer lyrics by the Wolf

    3. Funny story. My client, Rick Ross, and I were close to signing the Game to Maybach Music Group. One day, Ross called up Game to offer him a 3.5 million contract and a chance to operate his own label; it was supposed to be called Monopoly Records. While hanging out our studio, Game recorded a song entitled “This Is Chess, Not Checkers”, a diss record directed towards mocking 50 Cent’s “This Is Murder, Not Music”. It was close to becoming the #1 song on Itunes, but unfortunately, we decided in everyone’s best intrests to shelve it when the Game ultimately decided to sign with Cash Money.

    4. SLUMDON BRIDGE – YELAWOLF + ED SHEERAN … Yelawolf always been 3 steps ahead of the Game (pun intended)

    5. Any of you fuck boys that were game fans that used to think gayme is a real nigga and he about that life is a joke. Lets compare gayme to gucci. Game was a stripper he beats his wife he is bipolar as fuck he dickrides every rapper to stay relevent. BIG GUCCI ON THE OTHER HAND IS A REAL NIGGA HE IS ABOUT THAT LIFE.

      1. umm the game wrote dreams n my life 50 only wrote hate it or love it from this paragraph

    6. Ed Sheeran must be that desperate for a hit single he went to game. Game’s dope and supplied 50’s hit singles. When game signs to ymcmb, his album will go straight to no.1 first week with gold sales.

      Ed Sheeran is crawling to him for relevancy.

      1. He’s a British singer and the red hair and pale skin would be attributable to his Irish surname and background.

    7. Hypocritical bastard. Word on the street is that he emulated The Game before he took on rapping. When he was 15 he got into an farming accident while on a field trip to a farm out in the outskirts of Sacramento. While laying in the hospital, the doctors decided to redesign his mangled face into The Game’s image. During his stay, he decided to listen to Game’s music and therefore was inspired to become a rapper and even call himself Game II. That is, until one day, while he was selling drugs in his apartment building, he was shot 6 times – exactly like the Game. Another stay in the hospital would give him an epiphany and thus he decided to rap under his real name Ed Sheeran.

      1. Ed got more sole than nike airs, giving MC’s nightmares…

        wow racism is still alive and well in 2014 judging by the comments made on here, hypocrites first to pull the race card but also first to use it against other minorities smh GO FLIP BURGERS YOU LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATORS…

    8. If Game bring his old emotional style like my life, Born in trap and dreams it might be good combination but if he raps about cars and biiitches it would bomb.

    9. im a fan of both, but working together for a full album does not sound like a good idea. i don’t even know how itll work, their two completely different artists.

    10. Ed showing more and more he’s lacking in substance. Make real music and earn real attention, this is fuckin’ silly.
